Notes:
(1) Refer to “Non-GAAP Information” on page 45 for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP measure and a discussion of this measure.
(2) See note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Loss per share”. Earnings per ADS is calculated by multiplying earnings per ordinary share by ten, the number of ordinary shares per ADS. Dividend per ADS is calculated
similarly. EPS and dividend information has been restated for the capitalisation (bonus) issue on 30 September 1999.
(3) The final dividend for the year ended 31 March 2004 was proposed by the directors on 25 May 2004.
(4) For the purposes of calculating these ratios, earnings consist of income on ordinary activities before taxation, adjusted for fixed charges, dividend income from associated undertakings, share of profits and losses from associated
undertakings and profits and losses on ordinary activities before taxation from discontinued operations. Fixed charges comprise one-third of payments under operating leases, representing the interest element of these payments,
interest payable and similar charges and preferred share dividends.
